Yes, it will fit
The spindle is what the wheel bolts to and the brakes attach to.
remove axle bolt from spindle and push it through you may have to remove spindle if no clearance. remove factory tie strap clean and grease before replacing with new boot reassemble in reverse watch for pin on nut threads reversed on passenger side always consult technical manual and follow safety protocols
The ball joints on your car, are the flexible joints that connect the suspension control arm to the steering knuckle (the part of your axle that actually holds the wheel and allows it to turn left-right, but not up-down. == == == ==
Remove the spindle and then bring it to a shop to have it pressed out. Then have the new one pressed in. replace the spindle back in the car with the new hub
The lower control arm and spindle will separate .
With the aid of ball joints and steering joints, the knuckle allows the spindle to move up and down for suspension, rotate left and right for steering.
No.
Yes if you get your steering knuckle/spindle extended
No you have to loosen the lower ball joint take the spindle out of the lower control arm to pull the axle out. I was able to pull the axle thru the steering knuckle .After removing locking hub, rotor and spindle. (a slide hammer worked well for spindle)
It doesn't have a spindle. It has a steering knuckle and hub. To remove it: 1. Remove the hubcap and loosen the driveaxle retaining nut. 2. Remove the wheel and the driveaxle nut. Tap the end of the driveaxle with a hammer and a brass drift to loosen the splines in the hub. 3. Remove the brake calilper and support it with a piece of wire. 4. Separate the tie rod from the steering knuckle arm. 5. Unbolt the strut from the steering knuckle. 6. Remove the clamp bolt and the nut and detatch the ball joint from the steering knuckle. 7. Pull the hub and the steering knuckle off the drive axle.
The spindle is an assembly that is part of the front suspension at the front wheels on a 2 wheel drive , on a 4X4 it is called the steering knuckle. There is 1 for each front wheel
36 miilimiter for the spindle nut and 13 millimeter 12 point socket for the three bolts holding on the hub assembly to the steering knuckle.
Look under the front end of the car. You will find round bars, or rods going horizontally from the steering gear to the wheel spindle / steering knuckle assemblies on both sides. Those are the tie rods. There are 2 parts that make up the connecting tie rod: * The inner tie rod connects to the steering 'rack and pinion' assembly on the inside, and to the... * Outer tie rod, aka tie rod 'end' - which then mounts into the backside of the steering knuckle
Ah, well, see.... When you drive the car, the wheel spins. It is attached through a round thing, called a bearing, to a rigid object called a spindle or a knuckle. The spindle has to be able to move up and down to allow for bumps in the road and if it's a front wheel (or rear wheel with 4 wheel steering) it has to be able to turn for steering. The spindle is attached to the vehicle in at least three points to hold it steady. An upper control arm attaches to the spindle at the top of the spindle and keeps if from moving in a left/right direction. On some (but not all) vehicles it can also keep it from moving forward/backward and can push the spindle down and car up. It is usually attached to the spindle via a ball joint.
Their are two ways, first of all you need to remove the whole steering knuckle from the vehicle. First remove the brake caliper, and brake rotor. Then remove the axle from the knuckle, the two top bolts from the strut, lower control arm, and the outer tie rod. Then at this point you can just replace the whole knuckle. Or, the bearing sits in the knuckle behind the part where the rim would normally bolt to. It is a pressed in bearing, so in order to remove it you would need a press, hydraulic or manual. Face the knuckle downward, and with the proper press tool press the bearing out from the top until the spindle drops out, then press the bearing off the spindle. You can now reverse the process to install the new bearing.
The Expedition should, and that's about it.
T-55 Torx Socket (DO NOT USE AN ALLEN WRENCH) - To remove the 3 bolts that secure hub assemble to steering knuckle. 1 -3/16 deep socket - To remove axle spindle nut.
